Overlord I

[StoneAge]

Today is all about revenge:

B-17 going in above his HAA 32100 feet, Hopefully I get enough hits to put Tricqueville repair shops out of action as it's currently holding 130+ planes. I also want to prove to my opponent that an airfield that close to my bases is not a safe place to base his aircraft.

B-24's going on a milk run to hit his PRI AF at Monchy-Breton another close in field that has no AA or planes at the moment. (I hope he has the balls to try and move planes here this turn). The second raid is going after troops near by the AF this is a test to see how much damage only a few guns can do at 28000 feet.

A few low down test raids with Typhoon IB on fields with only HAA to see if I can slip in under his gaurd. If this works expect to see a lot of single Mosquito squadron's on his biggest PRI AF

Heavy's working on the PRI AF above paris if they dont have HAA they are a Target. Building score while not lossing too many bombers that I will need soon enough.

Bugger Cant Load Saved Game 3@

Ihave attached a zip file

[StoneAge]

Back in bussiness my opponent was being smart he has been saving the file in a diffrent slot and then clicking end turn and saving it in the correct slot.

So I now have a working file again.

On we go

Talking with my opponent he is not really enjoying this game at the moment. hope he changes his mind when the allies invade.

I think its all hard work for the Luftwaffe player in this scenario, more a case to set this as a training run against the AI than a PBEM.

In my wildest dreams I would love to see this being a campaign from Jan 41 thrugh to May 45.

[StoneAge]

He has changed his tactics once or twice but he has yet to try and hit my short raids in force. My deep raids have a 1:1 fighter/bomber mix where the short raids sometimes have a 1:5 ratio. If he got onto 1 of these I could loss a bunch of planes real fast.

My big advantage in this scenario is that I have few targets that really tax my fighters legs a few delays here and there for the thunderbolt 6, but I always have losts of cover all the way to the target and back.

Any Luftwaffe player will find it hard once the allies have a 1:1 ratio in planes.
